The first 8482 natural numbers are the whole numbers (integers) that start with 1 and end with 8482. To make a list of the first 8482 natural numbers, you simply count up to 8482.

To get the average of those 8482 numbers, you add them up and then divide the sum by 8482. We created a formula that can calculate the average of any sequence of natural numbers starting with 1. Here is the formula to calculate the average (avg) of the first n natural numbers:

avg = ((n × (n + 1)) ÷ 2) ÷ n

When we enter n = 8482 in our formula, we get the average of the first 8482 natural numbers. Here is the math and the answer:

avg = ((n × (n + 1)) ÷ 2) ÷ n
avg = ((8482 × (8482 + 1)) ÷ 2) ÷ 8482
avg = ((8482 × 8483) ÷ 2) ÷ 8482
avg = (71952806 ÷ 2) ÷ 8482
avg = 35976403 ÷ 8482
average = 4241.5
